Mobile Physician Rounding Solutions


Overview

Mobile Physician Rounding
The typical round is scheduled manually and requires lots of 'double touching' of information. But when physicians and nurses are armed with mobile computing devices, the information they need to conduct rounds is right there, at the press of a button. That means patients can be assessed with confidence — quickly as well as accurately.

More efficient processing of tests and medication orders improves the quality of care; increases loss protection (through better capture of billable items); and, through the power of automation, speeds up performance of all the administrative tasks associated with rounds. The resulting increase in productivity provides healthcare workers with the time they need to deliver more personalised patient care.

Features and Benefits

Without Mobility
Without mobility, rounds are scheduled manually, test results must be located before rounding begins, data on each patient is collected manually at patient bedside and data is then entered into the computer at the end of the round. In addition to being an inefficient use of time, this 'double-touching' of the data presents double the opportunity for errors.

 

With Mobility
When physicians and nurses are armed with mobile computing devices, that world of information that is required to conduct rounds is at their fingertips — from test results to patient history and more. And mobility delivers even more value through the ability to order tests and medication in real time, scan items as they are used at bedside and dynamically re-order rounds to ensure that more urgent patients are always seen first. Processing tests and medication orders more efficiently improves the quality of care; loss protection is increased through better capture of billable items utilised in a patient's room; and through the power of automation, all the administrative tasks associated with conducting rounds are performed faster than ever and more reliably.
